Enrolment and Tuition Policies
- Probationary Period Policy
- For children new to a program, the first four weeks of attendance are a probationary period. This can be extended, in writing, at the discretion of the Faculty. During the probationary period the family will have the opportunity to become familiar with the school, and the Faculty will be able to observe the student’s needs and abilities.
- Withdrawal and Refund Policy
- Morning Garden, Kindergarten, Grades One-Eight
- If a parent/guardian withdraws a student after July 1st and before school starts in September, one-tenth of the annual tuition is due and payable. If a parent withdraws a student or if Mulberry School asks a child to withdraw after the start of school, tuition fees are due and payable up until and including one month past the last day attended. After April 1st, no refund will be given.
- Parent and Child programs
- Parents are to register in the office by completing a registration form and submitting payment in full. If a parent withdraws after the start of the session, fees for the number of weeks attended are due and payable.
- Payment Policies
- The Mulberry School Board of Directors strives to keep tuition fees affordable and welcomes families from all income levels. We continue to offer the option of 10 monthly installments for tuition.
- Applications will not be accepted from any family whose account from the prior year is not fully paid.
- A $25.00 fee will be levied for all NSF cheques.
- Tuition Adjustment
- Mulberry School offers tuition adjustment, on a limited basis, to families based on demonstrated financial need. Application for an adjustment is part of the Commitment to Pay form.
- Non-refundable Deposit
- The non-refundable deposit is $400 for one child or $600 per family. This deposit is applied to the tuition fees upon registration.
- Current families must submit the non-refundable deposit and completed enrolment forms and arrange for the balance of payment by May 1, 2010. Late registration is subject to a $500 fee. (This fee may be waived based on an explanation submitted on the Commitment to Pay form.)
- Sibling Discount
- Mulberry School offers a 25% discount on tuition for a second child.
- Mulberry School offers a 50% tuition discount for the third child and each subsequent child. The sibling discount applies only to tuition fees.
- For children new to a program, the first four weeks of attendance are a probationary period. This can be extended, in writing, at the discretion of the Faculty.
